Queensland Police were not the only police officers to celebrate the occasion. South Australia Police also release a statement claiming to have arrested a group of youths “involved in a hoverboard chase and altercation at the Courthouse Mall”.

The police joked that the youths were ultimately arrested for crimes against fashion.
